There seems to be a sense of entitlement to some people that matches the importance they attribute to their role in society. Which came first? Good for them. They perform important roles in society. I simply make an observation on behavior based on serving people dinner, wine and drinks. I might guess that one could have observed such an attitude from very early on. Where does it come from? Is it genetic? Is it an attitude picked up on as a babe? Is it some form of actions of past lives causing an effect according to karmic law?

There are also those who don't mind serving people, who enjoy it. And I have great respect for such people. They strike me as being on a run of good karma. Some serve humanity in grand and important ways, and for some it's just simpler, more direct.

It is the right of all sentient beings to grasp and to understand and to share as a lesson to others the sense of karma. This is the compassion, to share the understanding of how past deeds shape a person's life.

Amazon and CreateSpace have answered a call. Now those books which people write out of compassion, with no wish for gain, are finally easily and broadly available. Where I once had vague thoughts that some democratic institution should arise to serve better the plain truths of sentient beings, the marketplace has developed such a vehicle. Bravo to all who make it work, including those who write the many things they do out of excellent intentions.
